Living Legends Part 2

(albüm: Right For The Time - 1996)

Well the latest news from Nashville
Ain't all good, but it ain't bad
The worst I ever found there
Was the best I ever had
The new hats and the no hats
Are still coming on pretty strong
While me and Kris and John and Willie
Are stilling plodding right along

Clint Black's moved out to Hollywierd
He's in love and that's a fact
Done found himself a movie star
Gonna show him how to act
Garth Brooks keeps selling millions
No that sure ain't no joke
But I just can't help looking for
A pig down in the poke

Have you seen Tanya Tucker
Hanging in there, hanging tough
Her and Dolly Pardon
Still got much more than enough
But a few new country ladies
That I've seen go dancing past
Should forget about Madonna
She ain't got no country class

Travis Tritt's got all the talent
Least it seems that way to me
He's a little brash and cocky
But he's got a right to be
Now Billy Ray keeps right on dancing
Outta tune and outta time
He drives Bubbas up the wall
And girls out of their minds

Living legends are a dying breed
There ain't too many left
To tell the truth, I ain't been feeling
Real hot lately my damn self
But I ain't old and I ain't bitter
I ain't mad at anyone
So don't go taking seriously
What's poked at you in fun

But if you've ever been to Nashville
I think you might agree
We've seen a lot of changes
Things we never thought we'd see
A rock-n-roller with a banjo
Now that I might recall
But a country singer with a brief case
Beats all I ever saw
